For many coffee lovers, a nice cup of coffee really sets the mood for the day, so access to good coffee can easily be one of the things people consider when looking for an apartment. We at RentHop love our morning coffee, too (lunch coffee, afternoon coffee time, anyone?), and to celebrate National Gourmet Coffee Day, we\u2019ve made it our mission to help you find out which neighborhood is best for coffee lovers. Let\u2019s take a look!<\/span><\/p>\n

The Best NYC Neighborhoods for Renters Who Love Coffee<\/span><\/h2>\n

To find out the best neighborhood for coffee lovers, we collected public data on coffee shops in New York City, including their name, business type, location (in latitude and longitude), and ratings. We then geocoded the coffee shop data using the Neighborhood Tabulation Areas released by NYC OpenData. For renters, just their love for coffee is not enough. At the end of the day, being able to afford the rent is perhaps the most important consideration. Therefore, we calculated the median two-bedroom rent by each neighborhood and incorporated that into our coffee score.<\/span><\/p>\n

Top on our list is Bushwick<\/a> (West), the western part of the commonly known neighborhood Bushwick, with a total score of 73.35. The neighborhood aggregates 4.59 coffee shops per square mile, with the median two-bedroom rent currently at $3,100. Western Bushwick has undergone major changes in recent years with multi-family housing developments and commercial corridors. The growth brought in more residents and, therefore, more coffee shops. The Bushwick (West) coffee shops average a rating of 4.65 out of 5 on Google Maps. Meanwhile, we observed a stark difference between the west and east parts of Bushwick. Eastern Bushwick claims the #45 place in our rankings with only 1.11 coffee shops per square mile.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

East Village<\/a> ranks as the second-best NYC neighborhood for renters who love coffee. While the median two-bedroom rent is higher than many outer-borough neighborhoods, at $4,495 per month, East Village has 6 coffee shops per square mile, the second most in Manhattan behind Greenwich Village<\/a>. The average rating of coffee shops here is 4.54.<\/span><\/p>\n
